James is being pushed into turning her life upside down and inside out. She can't stop disturbing dreams about a little girl she saved from a house fire years prior.

Book summaries :
The series summary :
The Wolf Born Saga The saga is a struggle set across four novels, each with their own story arc which ties back to the previous novels and reveals an even greater picture, until all the puzzle pieces fall into place.

Wolf Born introduces Carly to a world she never knew existed. On meeting a mysterious stranger named Kyle, she is thrown into a tangled web of suspicion and magic, where a struggle for power rages between two algonquian supernatural entities.

Wolf Witch pushes Carly even further into the fight for power, by revealing a truth that proves both her and Kyle are intertwined in more ways than one. The revelations set them on a path to discovering greater threats than just werewolves.

Wolf Blade takes Carly into the city, a place she has never been as a werewolf, and she soon becomes embroiled in the dangers of urban life and the spirits that walk there. She struggles to follow certain clues in order to circumvent a rival wolf’s plans. Finding out more about the magic that binds them, Carly ultimately frees Kyle from an ancient spell in order to save his life.

Wolf Bane sends Kyle full circle, as he has to undo an ancient enchantment to free Carly from a reawakened curse. However first he must find her, and in doing so must become a former incarnation of himself. His attempts to save Carly result in failure, and his whole world is lost…or is it?

Throughout these books runs a strong algonquian theme, tying ancient beliefs into a modern world.

Wolf Born
Carly's life is relatively mundane, with nothing more interesting to occupy her time than tidying up after an inattentive boyfriend and watching re-runs of sitcoms on television... until one evening when she sees something at her window. She starts to suffer from terrifying hallucinations she cannot control; to top it off her boyfriend has gone missing. ​When Kyle, a handsome seductive stranger, shows up at her door and takes her under his wing, she finds herself thrown into a supernatural world she never knew existed. Carly soon learns she has been scratched by a werewolf and to survive she must join the pack. Despite her reservations Carly finds herself falling for Kyle. ​After hunters savagely attack Carly's new friends and slaughter someone close to her in search of the wolf born, little does she realise a more deadly threat awaits them in the form of skinwalkers. ​As Carly becomes more involved she begins to have terrifying visions through the eyes of a pack member, but are these events which plague her dreams real? ​Could there be a traitor in their midst? ​Who is the wolf born she is hearing rumours of? ​ Faced with this new danger, Carly must now overcome more than just her transition into a wolf. 


Wolf Witch
Carly, just learning what it means to be a werewolf, realises life can be pretty invigorating when you have the freedom of the forest. That is, until strange things start to happen and her visions return.
After encountering a creature long forgotten as myth and controlling its mind, Carly begins to suspect her abilities may be more than just a werewolf gift. Seeking out the answers to her powers, she is introduced to a coven of witches.
When a spell to discover her ancestry goes awry, Carly finds out about a past that had been shrouded for centuries. Bringing up more questions than answers, she must now seek out the truth behind her strange powers.
When it seems like winter is following them, and Carly suspects her lover of being a monster, she doesn't know where to turn or who to trust. With frightening revelations and the existence of a cursed werewolf, Carly must piece everything together.
Can she figure out the truth before all is lost?

Ava Jones has settled for a life that she’s not sure she wants anymore, but won’t admit it. Her best friend, Erica Davidson talks her into taking a break on the Isle of Wight.

Created by the wonderful J. C. Clarke over at The Graphics Shed   
Losing myself in the titles, covers, and blurbs, I faintly heard footsteps behind me.“Hey, can I help?”I turned to face quite possibly the most beautiful man I had ever seen. His light brown hair had been bleached by the sun, and the bundle of messy curls made my fingers itch to tangle them among the chaotic strands. The man’s hazel eyes regarded both me and the slim book in my hand. His tall, lean figure was clad in skinny jeans, with an open, oversized shirt over a t-shirt and well- worn biker boots. He looked a little out- of-place among the surfer types I had noticed wandering around town.“I’m just looking, thanks.” I couldn’t help but blush when he gave a slight smirk at the sight of the Mills & Boon book I held.“If you’re after more . . . err . . . books in that particular genre, there’s a wider selection over here.” He indicated a bookcase to his left.“This? Oh, no. This isn’t my type at all. I was just moving it out of the way to get at the new James Patterson.”He cocked an eyebrow and his smile grew at my obvious lie. “Yeah, okay. I’ll leave you to . . . peruse.” He chuckled to himself as he made his way back behind the counter.I slammed the bright pink book down so I could grab the James Patterson, the one I’d initially been after, and walked over to pay. “I’ll take this one.” I thrust my card at him and waited while he ran it through. I knew it was a simple misunderstanding, but it rubbed me the wrong way. Why couldn’t I just accept that he thought I wanted the Mills & Boon book? It was an easy mistake to make, I guess.“Are you sure you don’t want the other one, too? It seems a bit more . . . your style.” He looked me up and down, taking in my denim shorts, skimpy vest top, and flip-flops.His scrutiny made me nervous. I took a deep breath and ran my fingers through my hair to calm myself. “What would you know about my ‘style’?” I demanded, snatching the book out of his hand and clutching it to me, almost as if it were a security blanket.I moved to retrieve my card, but he whipped it just out of my reach.“I’ve worked here for at least five years, and in that time, I’ve become very good at reading people. You are definitely steamy romance material, with your pretty hair and . . .” He indicated my clothes and swallowed, “. . . And your skimpy clothes.”“Well, it just goes to show that you’re not as good as you thought, then. Please give me back my card.” I held out my hand.Once he’d returned the piece of plastic, I spun on my heel and walked out. I planned to read my book slowly, because I wasn’t going to go back there.

Book Summaries:  

Movies blurb: Ava Jones has settled for a life that she’s not sure she wants anymore, but won’t admit it. Her best friend, Erica Davidson talks her into taking a break on the Isle of Wight. Her days on the island are spent thinking things through, and arguing with Morgan whom she hates on principal.


Is it so wrong for her to want a life that follows the script of a honest to God romance film?






Right Click, Love:
Synopsis:  


Disheartened about not being able to find “Mr. Right” on the London dating scene, best friends Jodie Lynch and Louise Hewson create a blog to not only document their disastrous dates with the numerous “Mr. Wrongs” and “Mr. Okay-for-nows” but also to help those going through the same experiences and to see where they’re going wrong. How will they deal with everything the dating scene has to throw at them — planned or otherwise?




Honour:
Synopsis: An anthology of short stories by M. B. Feeney 

The world is filled with people destined to help and to serve. Doctors, nurses, police, and firefighters—each and every day, these special people work to help others in times of need. Often, this means putting their own lives at risk in order to do their jobs. They give of themselves to benefit society, and they do it without any expectation of thanks. 

And then there is the military… 

These are the men and women who don’t head home to their families and safe homes to relax at the end of a shift. They are on the front lines, far from home and often fighting someone else’s battles because it is the right thing to do. Military families struggle to cope with the constant worry and the long periods of separation, staying strong to support those who serve in everything they do, and often are left to pick up the pieces when the highest price is paid. 

Servicemen and women are heroes in the purest sense of the word. Even when the world’s gone mad and their hearts are breaking, one thing remains unchanged. 


The One That Got Away:
Synopsis: There’s something about that one person we date in our teens but never become intimate with. Why does a sexless relationship render us unable to stop carrying that person, the what if, with us into our adult life? 

For Heidi Johnson, Shane Hughes is her “one that got away.” Through the years, he has stayed in the back of her mind while she became an adult, a mother, and her own person. Meanwhile, Shane has lived a life of regret that he let Heidi go for the wrong reasons: fear and a misguided sense of not wanting to hurt either of them. 

When they reconnect online, the memories they've tried to suppress over the years return, reigniting the feelings never explored ‘back in the day.’ Will a school reunion in their home town of London, surrounded by old school friends, help the pair address the questions the years apart left unanswered? Or will they still be left with wanting more? 


Dear Diary
Blurb for Dear Diary Born and bred in the UK, Holly is getting the chance of a lifetime—six weeks abroad. The Kings, a host family in the US, have invited her to stay with them and get a chance to experience life as an American. When she discovers that the King family includes two teenage boys, will she be glad she came or ready to hightail it back across the pond?

#TuesdayTeaser:Sydney Logan

  June is the book birthday for Sydney Logan's military romance, Soldier On! Keep reading to check out today's #TeaserTuesday, and be sure to grab your copy for a special birthday price! Losing her father in Desert Storm has left Stephanie James with a bitter soul when it comes to the military. As a college senior juggling a full course load, Steph's only goal is to graduate with honors at the end of the semester. She’s focused, determined, and a firm believer in all work and no play. Then she meets Brandon Walker at a New Year’s Eve costume party. Despite his disguise, Steph finds herself attracted to the camouflaged soldier who curls her toes with a scorching midnight kiss.Brandon is an engineering major and ROTC student from the hills of Kentucky. Growing up as the son of a major general has given Brandon firsthand knowledge of the struggles military families sometimes face. Now that his father’s memory is fading, Brandon is even more determined to make his dad proud and graduate as an officer in the United States Army. Then he meets Stephanie, and suddenly, his focus is less on his military service and more on the pretty brunette who has stolen his heart. When he becomes aware of Steph’s resentment toward the military, he worries their relationship is doomed. When faced with the realization that she's fallen in love with a soldier, can Steph’s wounds from the past be healed with love in her present . . . and in her future?

I kiss her. Hard. She groans and wraps her arms around my neck, pulling me to her until we’re as close as we’ve ever been. For a few fantastic minutes, we’re all tongues and hands and moans, because it’s been a long time since we’ve touched and we’re both a little worked-up. But after a while, our frantic kisses slow to something much more familiar—something warm and soft and real. We’re both breathless when we pull away. And, now, we can actually see each other’s faces because at some point, in the middle of the most awesome kiss of my life, the electricity came back on. And Bangle joined us on the couch. I eye the cat warily. “She’s going to claw my eyes out for touching you.” Steph gives me the sexiest grin I’ve ever seen before lifting her blouse over her head, letting it fall to the floor. “Then we better make it worth it,” she says   Sydney Logan is an Amazon bestselling author who may or may not have an unhealthy obsession with music (seriously, she loves everything from Eminem to Johnny Cash). She also has an amazing husband and a ridiculously spoiled cat, both of whom join her in soaking up the stunning views from their East Tennessee front porch. Find her books on Amazon, iTunes, B&N, and TWCS Publishing House. Visit her online at www.sydneylogan.com.

June Author Spolight Series: Gwen Dandridge

Not so long ago, my life centered around Morris and Sword dancing, I started writing around the time I ended my fifty bell habit. During the last sixteen years I have belonged to SCBWI and have been active within the group. My golden retriever and I can often be found haunting local bookstores.



In the last throes of the 14th century, Islamic Spain is under pressure from Castile and Aragon. Ara, the twelve-year old daughter to the Sultan, finds herself in the center of a political intrigue when her eunuch tutor is magically transformed by the evil Wazir. Can a little girl save her friend and tutor with the help of a Sufi mathemagician? Intertwined in a mystery of math, art and magic, Ara races to find the seven broken symmetries before time runs out. Will she succeed or will the Alhambra fall and with it all that she loves? And will the stone lions awaken in time to help her? This cross-cultural fantasy combines mystery and math to teach the geometry of symmetry. This project was supported by the NSF grant 9552462
